On Microsoft's Q1/27 earnings call, Satya Nadella outlined the Windows vision: "we are executing on our vision to bring hybrid intelligence to every desk in every home, making every PC a secure agent box. As more capable models run locally, we see an opportunity to make more intelligence effectively unmetered."
On gaming, he added that Xbox remains focused on reaching players across console, PC, mobile and cloud, with Minecraft delivering a record quarter and WoW holding its largest beta in franchise history.
